Nowadays, there are many breeds of dogs, and everyone likes different breeds. However, no matter what breed they are, we all hope that dogs will stay with us for a longer time. If we want our dog to stay with us for a longer time, we must pay attention to the dog's physical condition from time to time to avoid any accidents with the dog. In addition, it is also necessary to understand the status of dogs at each age. Let’s take a look at the comparison between dog age and human age~
Dogs within 3 months are considered to be in the weaning period. The puppy stage is from 3 months to 1 year old. After 1 year old, it is the adult stage. The young adult period of dogs is from 2 to 5 years old. Dogs in this period have the best physical strength and the most energy.
After the age of 7, dogs basically enter their old age. They will become less lively and active than they were in childhood, their temperament will become calmer, and their physical strength will not be as good as before. An 8-year-old dog is equivalent to a middle-aged person, and as the age gradually increases, the dog's reproductive ability stops at around 10 years old.
In fact, there is no strict algorithm for the age of a dog, and the lifespan of each dog breed is also different. We can roughly calculate the age of a dog as follows.
Normally speaking, one dog year is equivalent to 15 human years, and every year of small dogs after one year old is equivalent to four additional years of human age. For medium-sized dogs, the age of a person increases by five years per year, and for large dogs, the age of a large dog increases by about seven years.
The above is the approximate conversion between dog years and human years. Do you all understand it~
